We are your go-to platform for background music and custom voice messaging.
What is a Soundie?
A Unique Experience
Soundies were an American phenomenon ubiquitous through much of the 1940s and what we'd refer to today as a music video. They gave little-known artists at the time, like Martha Davis, Nat King Cole, and others, a platform to get their music out to the masses. We want to take that same concept into an audio format that plays unique and engaging messages to help create brand awareness and promotions for your business.
Engagement
What's the Benefit
Take control of your background music and have the peace in mind that you're doing it all legally. Not only will your customers feel more engaged by hearing a music vibe that is consistent and catered to the space they are in but why not take the opportunity to talk about your hottest menu items or play testimonials from some of your most loyal customers, live as if you had your own radio station! This develops a sense of trust and transparency with your patrons that will keep them coming back as well as give them something to talk about because no one else is doing anything quite like it.
